He'd juggle them WITH HIS MIND, only then Vlad (or, I guess, Kragar) would call, wanting something or other, and then Daymar would LET GO of the balls in favor of asking Vlad where they were going. THUNK THUNK THUNK. Possibly right into a vat of pudding. And I can't say how glad I am that there are more people out there who juggle lacrosse balls. The trick is to wear shinguards while doing it. ¬ MJ, who also had to wear a kilt while playing lacrosse
